    Default My 3,000 potential Darwin Award Nominees

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worl...ing-leave.html

    A rumbling volcano in the Philippines was on the verge of a major eruption today – but thousands of villagers living on its slopes are refusing to leave their homes.

    Already, 40,000 people have fled the no-go zone around Mount Mayon, which oozed crimson lava during eerie scenes captured last night.

    But around 3,000 residents, mostly farmers, remain – with some even returning after being evacuated up to three times by authorities.
    I wonder if they will realize they made the wrong decision as their lungs fill with burning ash...

    I don't know sir but I can say it'll be an interesting Scientific exploration and medical research to have fresh specimens to autopsy and such instead of ones that are thousands of years old...

    The Beauty of it though, Choice....its all about choice and giving the man the finger!!! I love it!!!

    Hmmm...

    Stay and risk death or leave and find out that the government declared your land unfit for return, so they are assuming ownership of it for your safety.


    Tough choice...

    You falsely assume that they would prefer a life without their property (land being their livelihood) over death.

    The issue will be that they will expect the gov to come and save them once the shit starts hitting the fan
    The first vehicles normally on the scene of a crime are ambulances and police cruisers. If you are armed you have a chance to decide who gets transported in which vehicle, if you are not armed then that decision is made for you.

    Be prepared, because someone else already is and no one knows their intent except them.

    If this were Louisiana or anywhere else in the US I would agree, I don't know about the Filipino culture though.

    If it was a choice between my life and a piece of land that was soon to be a sterile volcanic lava field I would just move somewhere else.

    Actually post volcanic land is rather fertile. Hawaii isn't exactly a desolate rock in the middle of the ocean.
